Since its independence from France in 1960, Gabon has had three presidents. In the early 1990s, Gabon introduced a multi-party system and a new democratic constitution that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and reformed many governmental institutions. Gabon was also a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for the 2010–2011 term.

Low population density, abundant petroleum, and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, with the 4th highest HDI and the third highest GDP per capita (PPP) (after Equatorial Guinea and Botswana) in the region. GDP grew by more than 6% per year from 2010 to 2012. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

Survivor: Gabon

Survivor: Gabon — Earth's Last Eden is the seventeenth season of the American CBS competitive reality television series Survivor. The premiere aired September 25, 2008, with the first two episodes screened back-to-back. Survivor: Gabon began filming in late June. It marked the second season of the series that was filmed in Africa (Survivor: Africa had been filmed seven years earlier in Kenya). Reports from Gabon indicate the show was filmed around the coastal towns of Nyonie and Ekwata in the Wonga-Wongue Presidential Reserve.

7 Facts about Gabon

Gabon is a one of the African countries that sit on the Equator, yet most of us barely know anything about this former colony of France. Today Gabon has one of the lowest population densities in the world, but that certainly doesn’t mean it’s not worth discovering.

In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Gabon.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. In 2014, Gabon became the first Central African nation to protect its threatened if abundant marine life. Nearly a quarter of its territorial sea is off limits to commercial fishing. The network of marine parks complemented an existing terrestrial protected area anchored by 13 national parks created in 2002.
2. The Gabonese capital, Libreville, got its name after the French navy captured a slave ship, named Elizia, in 1846.The 52 freed slaves were released and by 1849 had resettled near the French mission station on the site of Libreville, which translates as "Free town".
3. Prior to France's appropriation of today's Gabon, Bantu migrants, Portuguese explorers, alongside Dutch and English traders arrived and settled in the area between the 14th and 16th centuries. The Dutch, English and French soon settled in pre-colonial state known as Kingdom of Orungu. As a centre of the slave trade in the 18th century, the Gabonese coast became a departing point for the transatlantic slave trade at the end of the century.
4. The first president of Gabon, elected in 1961, was Léon M'ba. After M'ba's accession to power, civilian liberties were restricted. However, when M'ba dissolved the National Assembly in January 1964 to institute one-party rule, an army coup sought to oust him from power and restore parliamentary democracy. French paratroopers flew in within 24 hours to restore M'ba to power.
5. One of the most urbanized nations in mainland Africa, 87% of Gabon's population reside in urban areas, according to the UN's 2014 World Urbanization Prospects. While this striking figure is more than double the regional average (40%), National Geographic reports that an impressive 44% of Gabon's 1.38m population live in the capital, Libreville.
6. Hip-hop has been popular in the Central African region since the 1980s. Even current PresidentAli Bongo released an album and is known to appear on stage to perform among local rappers while on the campaign trail.
7. Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

While this striking figure is more than double the regional average (40%), National Geographic reports that an impressive 44% of Gabon's 1.38m population live in the capital, Libreville.
6. Hip-hop has been popular in the Central African region since the 1980s. Even current PresidentAli Bongo released an album and is known to appear on stage to perform among local rappers while on the campaign trail.
7. Abundant petroleum and foreign private investment have helped make Gabon one of the most prosperous countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, because of inequality in income distribution, a significant proportion of the population remains poor.

Gabon and Lobe National Park

I didn't think I'd make it into Gabon after my time in Yaounde at their terrible embassy, but after getting a visa with ease at the border (as seen in the last episode) I'm here. The truth is, this country has such brilliant potential. The scenery is unbelievable, there is money here in the oil and timber industry, and there is wildlife as well.
However, despite a couple fun days in Gabon with a Dutch couple I met on the road, I quickly grew to despise Gabon. The people here were the least friendly I met in all of Africa, they seemed to resent me being in their country.

GabonTravel - Gabon is a country in WesternCentral Africa. It lies on the Equator, on the Atlantic Ocean coast, between the Republic of the Congo to the south and east, Equatorial Guinea to the northwest and Cameroon to the north.
A small population, as well as oil and mineral reserves have helped Gabon become one of Africas wealthier countries. The country has generally been able to maintain and conserve its pristine rain forest and rich biodiversity.
The earliest inhabitants of the area were Pygmy peoples. They were largely replaced and absorbed by Bantu tribes as they migrated.
In the15th century, the first Europeans arrived. The nations present name originates from Gabão, Portuguese for cloak, which is roughly the shape of the estuary of the Komo River close to the capital of Libreville. French explorer Pierre Savorgnan de Brazza led his first mission to the Gabon-Congo area in 1875. He founded the town of Franceville, and was later colonial governor. Several Bantu groups lived in the area that is now Gabon when France officially occupied it in 1885.
In 1910, Gabon became one of the four territories of French Equatorial Africa, a federation that survived until 1959. These territories became independent on 17 August 1960.
Since independence, Gabon has been one of the more stable African countries. Autocratic PresidentOmar Bongo was in power from 1967 until his death in 2009. Gabon introduced a multi-party system and a new constitution in the early 1990s that allowed for a more transparent electoral process and for reforms of governmental institutions. A small population, abundant natural resources, and considerable foreign support have helped make Gabon one of the more prosperous sub-Saharan African countries. Despite being made up of more than 40 ethnic groups, Gabon has escaped the strife afflicting other West African states.
Enjoy Your Gabon Travel!

Moreover, well at the pride and joy of Gabon tourism, Lope National Park, we learned how unprofessional they can still be when it comes to business.
Gabon, thus far has been so insanely frustrating but mostly due to the fact that it has so much potential, but the people don't seem to care even the slightest about the tourists that come here hoping to explore.
There are many places I'd rather see develop a tourism in West and Central Africa. And it annoys me to no end that the one country in the region that has the money, stability, and the natural blessings is completely neglecting it.
Anyways, rant over. After this episode I roll on towards the town of Franceville as I have to catch the train since there is no fuel left in the town of Lope. Stay tuned.

(BBC HD) Tribal Wives, the Babongo, Gabon S02E02 Series Two Episode Two

Series 2 Episode 2 of 6
Linda Plover from Liverpool is going to live as a 'TribalWife' with the Babongo in southern Gabon. Linda is haunted by memories of a poverty-stricken childhood and feels an overwhelming sense of bitterness towards her mother. As she struggles with the demands of her new role as sidekick to tough-talking Babongo matriarch, MamaTito, she begins to see her past from a whole new perspective - and for the first time ever, realises that there are two sides to every story.
Tribal Wives returns to BBC Two for a second series. Six British women swap their everyday lives for life as 'Tribal Wives' in some of the most remote communities on earth. Like many women today juggling career, home and family, they feel that something is missing. By spending time in societies where female roles are very different, they hope to find answers that could change their lives.
